Lost my home and shop, need hobby outlet

I know that it looks pretty bad and emotionally beyond bad. Still I wonder what may be salvageable. I would think that all of the steel stock might still be usable. The bench vice and the machinist vise too. What about the chuck, tool post holder and other parts on the lathe? You won't know for sure until you drag the stuff out of the ashes. Wishing you the best.
 
The “Kant-Twist” clamps are ok.
I have 5 that were ground zero and they are seasoned but work just fine.
The Irwin vise grips are ok also. Just need to replace the springs.
The vise is probably ok.
Silver lining
 
I have been soaking the Ruger in vinegar. Scrub and dink, scrub and dunk.
I don't plan on ever firing it so no need to warn me. It makes a great conversation piece. The fired cases are bulged and the cylinder is stuck solid.
Of course it was loaded.IMG_1577[1].JPGIMG_1578[1].JPGIMG_1579[1].JPG
